“Thank You Tim”
As a first time international traveler I was not sure what to expect and was nervous about getting my vacation started. I contacted Tim and asked for a custom tour. He met us at the airport, took us to our hotel and then took us to the Asakusa area in Tokyo. Tim had spent the time to go to our hotel the day before and check out the area before we got to Tokyo. Tim showed us around Asakusa and took us to some great places for street food. He took us to places and restaurants that we would have not found on our own. Tim took the time to answer all questions we had, explain the local customs and took pictures of us at the different landmarks. Tim was very knowledgeable and was a lot of fun to be around. Later in our vacation we booked Tim for another tour in Osaka, he spent the evening with us showing us around the Dotonbori area. We had some great street food and learned a lot about the area. I cannot recommend Tim enough, he got our vacation off to a great start, sent us information throughout the week on things we talked about and answered several questions through a messaging app even when we were not on tour. Hanging out with Tim was great and he makes you feel like you have known each other for years. Thank You Tim for getting our vacation off to a great start, showing us around Osaka and just being a great person.

(6 reviews)James, thank you for the great review. Meeting you and your son on your adventure to Japan was my pleasure. It was exciting for me to be part of your journey in Tokyo and Osaka. I'm happy I could help make your trip a fun and memorable experience. You and your son were great people to spend time with. Thank you!
“Perfect Tour”
Best decision I made while traveling solo through Japan. My main interest was to get the local flavor of the best food and drink the area had to offer, and with hundreds upon hundreds of bars and restaurants to choose from it would have been a shot in the dark without Tim’s knowledge of the best Shibuya and Shinjuku has to offer. Great stroll through the fascinating historical areas that I didn’t even realize existed. Learned enough to feel extremely comfortable going back the next night and hitting some other food stalls and bars. Tim’s a great guy to hang out with, and knows his stuff. This was the highlight of my trip so far. Thanks again!

I'm glad we had some delicious food and enjoyed the history and cultural information of the areas we visited and other areas in Tokyo and Japan. Sharing travel and life stories was also really fun. It was a pleasure talking to you. Thank you for being a super guest!
“Amazing tour of Shinjuku”
Great evening tour with Tim in Shinjuku. This is a rather overwhelming side of Tokyo, however under Tim's impeccable guidance it became a rather exhilarating evening. I would never have been able to navigate this on my own. Thank you Tim for a lovely unique experience.
